Just wondering if anyone has made this using dry sherry instead of cooking sherry? I almost always have dry sherry on hand but I never use cooking sherry anymore. Thoughts? Also has anyone tried cutting some of the heavy cream back and substituting evaporated milk?

I loved this soup! I did use my immersion blender to make it smooth and used real sherry instead of the cooking kind. I may add it earlier next time to simmer off some of the alcohol.

Awesome soup! I made this last night to go with grilled cheese and it was a huge hit. I had to make a few substitutions but it still turned out wonderful. I didn’t have any tomato juice or chicken base so I used chicken stock and added a bit of Italian tomato paste (The kind in the tube, it’s less bitter than canned tomato paste.) Used my immersion blender to make it a little creamier before I added the cream and sherry. It was delicious. I will definitely be making this again. Thanks Ree for the great recipe.

Wonderful Tomato Soup! I had to improvise a bit – no Tomato Juice – so used 4 small cans of Spicy V-8 and a can of Tomato Sauce. Blended with my immersion blender and served with the proverbial Grilled Cheese Sandwich. A great rainy Sunday night meal that warmed us all up.

I need to make this again soon. I haven’t done it in a while, but I remember it was outstanding. Neither of us are big fans of canned tomato soup, so I wasn’t sure how this would go over, but we loved it. I even took it to a group function and it was quickly slurped down. I did blend it a little with the immersion blender to make it a little smoother.

Fantastic! Im currently enjoying this soup on a dreary day of Dogwood winter. Sherry scared me a little bit so I only used a half cup, I’ll work my way up one day. Topped it off with some grated parmesan and toasted frenchbread. Just a little bit of heaven.
